[SOLVED] Can't seem to find default index.html file? Ubuntu LAMP

Hey LQ,

I've got a small server running off of a home adsl connection. I'm currently trying to get it setup for https (which I think I've got working properly) and for some reason when visiting the site through regular http I'm given the default apache "It works" Apache2 Ubuntu Default Page. I only have one virtualhost set (I a2dissite'd the defaults) and yet this default page is still being served.

I've also deleted it from /var/www/html which is where the virtualhost points to for document root and yet its still being served!

How is Apache2 still loading this html page?

Code:

wh33t@wh33tserv:/etc/apache2$ ls sites-enabled/
wh33t.conf

Code:

wh33t@wh33tserv:/etc/apache2$ sudo nano sites-enabled/wh33t.conf

Code:

Listen 81
<VirtualHost *:81>
    DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/"
    ServerName wh33tserv

    # Other directives here
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/crt/wh33tserv.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/crt/wh33tserv.key
</VirtualHost>

Any ideas?

Maybe it is simply cached by the browser?

Well don't I feel stupid. That solved it. I thought I had that disabled in my browser lol. Guess not.

Thanks for chiming in.
